Does being rich mean you can act like an arrogant and rude person to others? I earn just enough to get by. I have a nice house in a nice area and if I have any spare money I give it to an animal charity or as I have done a few times, I gave it to a desperate homeless person on the streets. In my mind I think what goes around, comes around and it's good to be nice to people. As long as my clothes look clean and tidy I couldn't care what make they are. Am I doing things wrong and should I spend all my money on a designer handbag, dye my skin orange and sleep with a footballer that I can sell stories about for idiots to buy? Or should I get a TV show where I can be rude to people who haven't made it big or have a big car?
If I pass my law exams, should I use it to help people in trouble, or only care about fleecing people for as much money as I can in their darkest hours? More people will like me if I do that, won't they?
Maybe I should make sure I get the biggest house possible with all the designer clothes I can get, and if I have a few pounds left I'll give it to some paupers but they have to name something after me first.
No I don't mean that people in caring jobs should be paid more, but should that matter? Shouldn't people who help others for low pay or even for nothing be admired as much as a person with expensive clothes?
It's just that all the women's magazines I read have idiots in them and the writers are saying wow, they have a designer handbag. If idiots didn't keep buying the magazines or the rubbish they sell then they wouldn't become rich for doing nothing. I don't buy the magazines but I look at other people's sometimes. I would like to read more about people who help others for low pay or for nothing as they seem more interesting.
Ok thanks. I thought that by being nice I was doing the wrong thing in our society. I'll try and be more hard hearted and spend the money I give to charity on designer clothes instead.
I don't think being rich is a class thing. I know upper class people in houses that are falling apart and they spend all their money on the upkeep. I have worked for rich people and royalty and they wear clothes that are ten years old. On the other hand, I see chavs in magazines with handbags for 1000 pounds and they can't even speak properly.
I think what made me care about not being rich is that I worked for a butler in an establishment that had upper class people and met people at the top of their academic career who wore 10 year old clothes with holes in them. They just seemed to have ways where they spoke properly and thought education was important. It seems that what's important is that I try not to have any class or morals, as long as I have money.
